Hi Danny, I'm a great admirer of your work and of course this one is another stella effort! Can I ask you what you are using? It looks like your using pencils, but how do you get your black areas looking so black - is there post production work on the contrast? Cheers Kim.

thanks. yeah, i'll darken(basically multiply the layer then duplicate it and adjust) and also bring up the contrast slightly digitally. 
also if you compare this to some of my more recent stuff I'm not really doing those dense dark areas on my figures anymore. instead i'm using hatching to build up the areas that would be dark. so i'm not really getting that dark look that i was doing a few years back.
cool gallery btw
